Overview
Generate tests systematically by analyzing code paths, covering edge cases, and validating coverage targets.
When to Use
- Creating tests for new features
- Improving coverage in weak areas
- Building regression or integration test suites
Avoid when:
- The task is only running existing tests (use dev-workflows)
